What's up with the non-RP names in RP-servers?

I have a few toons on the RP servers.

Once I was stuck doing a quest mission where the boss was pwning me bad.

a lvl 40 Jugg was nearby and i whsipered to him "hey can you please help me with this boss I need to kill? just make sure I do not die, I dont need you to kill him just watch my back incase i start losing the fight bad"

His response: "I am sorry but my Sith jugg does not socialize AT ALL with non-sith species therefore it would break my immersion to help you."

My reply: "Look, I respect your immersion I just need someone to make sure i dont die this is pretty close it will only take literally 3 min of your time."

his reply: " my sith does NOT socialize with non sith. You are now on my ignore for breaking my immersion and devaluaing my gameplay"

I put out a help call on general. a few seconds later a sith sorc named "Twinkletoesandcupcakes" answered me and said "hey m8 I will be happy to help!" 2 min later he was there, stayed with me till I finished my boss, gave me some gear he didnt need and wished me well.

Point is, a LOT of rp'ers are total douchebags, while a lot of "f2p teens with non rp names" will bend over backwards to help you.

I was playing my IA and put in Gen Chat, Imperial Intelligence has eyes and ears everywhere, we know all.

A guy replied your a dumb***** . others didnt join in RPing but told him if he didnt like the RPing he could leave the server since it was *shocker* and RP server. I try once in a while but my guild does not RP sadly.

what server and name so i can report you every time i see you for no reason because i am bored?

Here is the deal. No matter what type of server you are on there will be tools and there are all types of tools as well. People that you do not like, you do not have to group with. People who spam chat with stuff you don't like, you put on ignore and poof you don't see it.

The community makes the server and you the player makes the community.

LOL, how is that douchebaggery?

Frankly reads to me he went out of his way to explain the situation for you.
On previous game Role Play servers he would have just acted superior and spouted off about how your species is beneath his notice and hes full of contempt towards you.

ITS CALLED ROLEPLAY

Roleplay doesnt mean is actually a server of carebears (as pvpers like to proclaim)

Sometimes a person RPs a hero of the people and would help you
other times a person RPs someone that holds lessers in comtempt

No douchebag actions being shown in your example
Though coming to the forums to call him a douchebag because you didnt get your non RP way at the cost of his immersion is a rather douchebag action to be sure.

FYI: Id never play the superior race RP as Im a very social player. But that doesnt mean the other player, who went out of his way to tell the person im quoting , was wrong.
As the oild saying goes, to each their own
You complaining about how his RP didnt fit your desires is akin to someone rolling on a PVP server and then complaining on forums when they got killed in a fight they didnt want to fight.

Dont like RPers, dont roll of a RP server
Dont like PVP, dont roll on a PVP Server

To me, the ultimate douche move is to roll on servers that have rule sets you are not ready to embrace fully and then coming to the forums to complain about those rule sets.

Your clearly NOT a RPer, so why wouldnt you just roll on a PVE/PVP server rather then a RP designated server?

Dont answer, your words have more then loudly already answered the question.

If you let their names bother you, you deserve to be trolled.

Put them on permanent ignore and go about your day. Boom! I know, I know...my answer just entirely changed your experience on your server. Thank me later.

Sincerely,
Jung Ma Player

I got told as I was trying to RP that RP is not for gen chat and to take my RP in person as they didn't want to hear it. I was like too bad this is an RP server, deal.

The General channel is often a poor choice for RP, especially on Fleet where it is used for trade and game logistics. General is zone wide, which means you're listening to someone who might be standing in a valley at the far end of the planet; that's an immersion buster for anything other than "planet wide distress call" type RP traffic. Still, I would welcome RP in Voss General for example. But Fleet General is de facto OOC. There you're better off using a custom channel (just /cjoin rp and tell your friends to do the same) or at least use /say and emotes.

Not sure this will be helpful or even read on page 3 (or 5! Popular thread!), but thought I'd share a story.

I've always rolled on an RP server, no matter what game I played. Used to RP pretty heavy, too (did on this game till my guild left en masse and I stayed, but I digress). On WoW, I had a gnome named Kneenibbler. This name got reported, and this was back when Blizz DID enforce naming policy. So my name got reported, but it was a grey enough area apparently that they didn't just change it, they had a CSR talk to me. When asked if I had a valid RP reason for my name, like most RPers I was more than happy to share my RP story behind the name and character. For a little more than half an hour. With a CSR. In the end, he said I could keep the name, and as far as I know that little guy is still out there somewhere.

Moral of the story; not all the "non RP names" are non RP names. Now, some of the ones here are pretty blatant... but don't unilateraly declare all who wear such names to be unfit for your server.

And yes, I have a toon in this game with a "Non RP name." And even though I don't RP currently, I still made sure to have at least a brief backstory on why he wears it

Im on Obipwn try to report me. If you look at server select for RP, it specifically says no naming conventioons enforced. So yes you are harrassing other players.
